Anti-APE-1 (Apurinic Endonuclase Factor 1)

APE1 repairs oxidative DNA damages in vitro. It may also play a role in preventing cell death by suppressing mutations. APE1 removes the blocking groups from the 3'-termini of breaks in the DNA strand generated by ionizing radiation or bleomycin. APE1 is part of the cellular response to oxidative stress and protects cells from the genotoxic and cytotoxic effects of oxidizing agents. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: ELISA: 0.05-0.2ug/ml, Western Blot: 0.5-1ug/ml, Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile 40-50% glycerol, aliquot and store at -20°C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20°C.
